-15-Chapter 4Instructions on fueland engine oil1. Fuel! WarningGasoline is inflammable andexplosive. When handling gasoline,attention should be paid to preventburnt or accident.ƽ In places where gasoline isstored or handled, shutdown theengine, do not smoke, and keepaway from naked flame orspark.ƽ Refueling should be made in awell ventilated place. Afterrefueling, immediately clean offany gasoline outside the fueltank.Please #93 or #95(GB17930-1999) unleaded gasoline.This may prolong the service life ofspark plug.Note!If the engine produces pingnoise, it may be caused by using ofimproper fuel. Replace with correctfuel.Ethanol gasolineIf ethanol gasoline is used,please use #90 or higher conformingto GB18351-2004. Do not usemethanol gasoline, even though itmay contain cosolvent andanti-corrosion agent.Note!ƽ If ethanol gasoline is exposed towater excessively, ethanol may beseparated, resulting in decrease ofgasoline octane number. Therefore,the storage time should not be toolong.ƽ Before using ethanol gasoline forthe first time, make a throughcleaning of the fuel supply systemand fuel tank.ƽ Always buy a proper amount ofethanol gasoline. Once there is apoor fuel tank sealing or a longstorage time, moisture content mayincrease, causing low octane numberand resulting in difficult ignition orweak power.2. Lubricant(Please refer to RegularMaintenance Table)Use high quality 4-strokeengine oil to prolong engine life.Engine oil should be SE or SDproduct in API classification. Engineoil of proper viscosity should beused according to local airtemperature. There are threeviscosity levels suitable for theengine, namely, SAE15W-40,SAE10W-30 and SAE5W-30.
